The Empire of War Dogs XVI is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Dog o'War with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, compulsory gun ownership, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 11.039 billion War Dogs are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of WD Central. The average income tax rate is 96.7%.

The frighteningly efficient War Dog economy, worth a remarkable 3,508 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Information Technology, Retail, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 317,801 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dog o'War's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies, adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, the words 'private' and 'enterprise' must never appear in the same sentence, and would-be mescaline users often describe a crawling sensation on their skin. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. War Dogs XVI's national animal is the Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Canis Majorism.

War Dogs XVI is ranked 280,665th in the world and 10,603rd in Lazarus for Safest, scoring 5.15 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
